If the coilpack is bad, it will have a specific code that says which cylinder it is, and specifically stating it is a coilpack problem. Misfires problems (where only the code for misfire on X cylinder is shown) are never a coilpack problem in my experience. I have gone myself thru about 8 coilpacks, a head gasket and a couple of sparkplugs and have seen my fair share of trouble for other 86 owners at the track. Never has a coilpack been the culprit when the code was not a code for a coilpack, and the other way around as well, never has something else been the problem when the coilpack code is thrown. Dont replace parts for the sake of replacing, it is not a way of doing things, its a way of wasting money and time.
